Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword
Chapter 221 The Sword Saint VS The Heavenly Sword 6Two words, such simple words yet the implications they carried meant changes that would impact empires. What made them special did not lie in the words themselves, nor the meaning they carried. No, the only thing of value came in the form of who owned them.
Hiroto Musashi. The Wolfen butcher, a being so powerful he cleared a monster-ridden zone single-handedly. The butcher proved his mettle as he fought an entire system-user army and prevailed. In a span of a month, the man hunted the legions of beasts there to almost the point of extinction that it started to affect continental trade.
The man also went by Sabachthani, the leader of Redeemed. A group so decisive they assassinated over two thousand of the most influential men and women of the underworld in a single night. Murdering two Level 70 [Adepts] regardless of affiliation with hardly any survivors.
Lastly, this lunatic called forth an SSS Class monster invasion of 12,000 strong for unknown reasons. Taking four subordinates, the butcher not only fought but preyed on the legions of nightmares. In the time the kingdoms count react, the entire cataclysmic horde of monsters enough to destroy a county disappeared.
From the time he showed up, the man before Dylan acted so over the top that each of his actions affected the entire continent. The same person now told him the words he wanted to hear the most.
"What?" unable to comprehend what just transpired. Dylan prepared himself for rejection so much so that his mind stopped working. Hiro who didn't mind repeated.
"I accept your request. As payment for protecting my wives from Rhyne, my wedding, and information about the saviors. I will enter the Battle Harem Royale and murder every single one of your opponents."
Dylan's wives who couldn't believe it started to get chatty with each other in disbelief.
"Talvi, I think I went insane for a bit. Did he just say yes?"
"Indeed Leto, he did."
"Oh…WAIT ISN'T THAT GREAT!"
"Aren't we like going to win thing now Vesna?"
"Autumn, please keep quiet for now. But yes. I think so too."
"Hehe… I'm so happy, Dylan doesn't have to die…"
Hiro's side who saw how silly the Prince's family behaved found it both humorous and endearing. While it would be shameful in a public setting, having such pure-minded people like Leto and Autumn ensured Dylan spoke the truth.
The prince was still trying to process the whole thing and still looked at Hiro dumbfounded. Vesna who noticed the weird looks Hiro's side was giving her husband quickly placed her hand on Dylan's cheek to wake him up.
"Dylan-love wake-up, your new ally has yet to leave." The prince regained his senses a second later and still couldn't believe it. Of course, the event is still months away, yet the immense relief that flooded Dylan's system made his mind blank out for a moment.
"What should I give you? Do you want gold? Weapons? There must be something!" The butcher's side felt amused as Dylan started to panic. Luckily Hiro took his hand and gripped it in a handshake.
"Your Highness, You have no need to give me anything. Such is the price for the favor I owe you. For the lives of my women until you get the throne I will remain your ally."
Talvi then pulled out her large sword and attacked Hiro aiming for his neck. In the same second, Tsugumi stood on the table, parried her strike, and sent a vicious kick aiming for her stomach, Dylan's wife then used her knee to block the foot and used the force to squat between Hiro and her husband.
The speed at which the women moved sent small tremors through the air, luckily the table did break. Tsugumi who couldn't understand why her brother got attacked roared in anger. "WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU! NII-SAMA JUST SAID HE WILL HELP YOU!"
Yet the one to answer her was not from the prince's party but her own. Jade flicked her hair as she explained. "She probably wanted to confirm Husband didn't want the crown. Otherwise, her man would just be a puppet ruler. Her show of force was probably to deter the latter."
pαпᵈα-noνɐ1.сoМ Immediately after, Raylene added "The shinobi is right to be wary. Without strength, they would not be able to stop darling if he wanted to be emperor instead of the prince."
"But while we understand you, do that again and we will end you bitch… Due to your ignorance of politics, aside from Vesna, you are all more of a burden to your husband than a blessing. Your reasoning might be out of love, but you would have lost a powerful ally if we took offense." Vanessa rebuked Dylan's harem in a voice full of fury.
Hiro simply smiled and faced Talvi. "Lady Talvi, I admire your bravery and your loyalty to you man. You have earned my respect as you aimed at me without fear. To answer your question, I have no interest in the crown. "
Due to the cold atmosphere, the prince's harem felt terrible, Talvi most of all. Vesna comforted her sister as she verified Hiro's reasoning. "What possible benefit could you get from helping Dylan for free? You and your women may die in the tournament. I apologize but we do not believe in goodwill for the sake of goodwill."
The butcher then glanced at the black glove on his right hand as he spoke. "You are wise Lady Vesna, indeed I have a hidden agenda that requires Dylan to be on the throne."
The prince gulped as he asked. "What would that be? What would be so grand if you need me to be emperor? Most men wish for power, riches, or status. Aside from status what else do you need?"
"I need you to strengthen the Dominii empire as much as possible in the next decade." Answered the butcher.
Leto spoke with an arrogant voice. "A decade? You mean the warning of the invasion from the system? That is utter nonsense. The gate thing is something old people have been rambling about for centuries. Despite everything they prophesied nothing happened! It's an old wife's tale!"
Autumn removed the spell covering her hair and revealed her originally rose-colored hair. "Uhm…Mr. Hiro, I used all the skills from the Gracyeanor I know of. None of them confirmed the coming invasion."
Dylan held up his hand to silence his women and asked. "The various leaders used all manner of prophecies and star readings but everyone confirmed that the invasion is an impossibility. Do you have evidence to believe otherwise?"
Hiro smiled as explained in a logical manner. "I never said anything your highness. I just said I am helping you because I need your empire at its strongest a decade from now.
"Now, I will add a few terms to our agreement. From today till the day of the tournament, you will not tell anyone that I am your ally. We will only do so during the battle royale with Starfall."
"I see, you wish to see if there are spies among my ranks. Then we will do as you say." Dylan who understood the benefits of using the info to smoke out moles agreed.
Anyone outside of his wives who knew or asked about it would belong to his enemies. Due to the nature of Arcus's kiss, moles would already know of the hidden subs in here, thus anyone snooping around would immediately be exposed.
"How will you be spending the time between then and now?" inquired the crown prince of the Dominii.
The butcher smiled as he spoke simple words. "What I do best. Hunt."
